WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF GASTROENTEROLOGY SURGERY?

Introduction

It was in the early 1980s, that Gastroenterology surgery made its entry in India. In the initial stages, it did not exactly create waves. Gradually, it started making its impact and today it is firmly established as a super-specialty in India. 

More people are at risk today than ever from fatal diseases that infect the body parts related to gastroenterology. Body parts like esophagus; gallbladder; large intestine; liver; pancreas (the solid organs of the digestive system); rectum (the hollow organs of the digestive system); small intestine, and stomach. Aside from the disorders that affect the gastrointestinal (GI) tract; the infections could be a cancerous or non-cancerous growth, or a damaged part, or in some case, even a hernia which could damage it. 

Gastroenterology surgery is the most effective therapy for treating all of the above cases. Additionally, it is also an effective therapy for facilitating major weight loss in extremely obese patients. Though it is an effective therapy, it is an expensive therapy which not many people can afford to pay for and get treated.

This is the reason why many people from around the world prefer to come to India to get treated for their gastro-related issues. The treatment and care in India is not only reasonable, but also world-class with some of the finest gastroenterology surgery centres that are equipped with state-of-the-art medical technologies and equipments, highly skilled gastro surgeons; and impeccable track-record of successfully treating even the most complex cases.

GASTROENTEROLOGY SURGERY

Gastroenterology surgery is a surgical treatment that treats diseases in the digestive tract as well as malignant (cancerous) and benign (non-cancerous) medical issues that affect the body’s digestive system; and removes the tumor (benign or malignant) or damaged part of the tract like the intestine. 

It also treats medical issues like

GASTROESOPHAGEAL REFLUX DISEASE (GERD) & HIATAL HERNIAS:  GERD, a symptom of hiatal hernia, occurs when the acid of the stomach pushes back into the esophagus (food pipe). To rectify this disorder, gastroenterology surgery is done to fix the hernia and then wrap the top of the stomach around the esophagus’s bottom. This helps to keep the acid out.

GASTROINTESTIONAL CANCERS: They occur when the tumor becomes malignant. As a result, gastroenterology surgery needs to be performed to remove the cancerous tumor.

HERNIA: It occurs when an organ like the intestine bulges. To rectify this anomaly, gastroenterology surgery needs to be performed; else the problem will become severe and painful.

RECTAL PROLAPSE: It occurs when a part of the intestine comes through the anus. Gastroenterology surgery works effectively to rectify this problem.

Apart from the above, this surgery also plays a key role in treating general diseases of the GI (gastrointestinal) like the chronic inflammation of the digestive tract or inflammatory bowel disease; endoscopic surveillance; pancreatic disease; and reflux esophagitis which occurs commonly due to GERD.
